Tromsø, January 05 2023 - ArcticZymes Technologies ASA (OSE: AZT) announces significant headwinds for the fourth quarter with sales of 28.3 MNOK and 137.2 MNOK for the fiscal year 2022.
ArcticZymes Technologies fell short in the fourth quarter generating 28.3 MNOK in product sales. The shortfall impacted the Company's annual sales guidance target of 155 MNOK and resulted in an underperformance of 137.2 MNOK for the full year 2022. The combination of reduced demand post-pandemic and the impact of the macroeconomic environment have reduced turnover within the Molecular Tools business. Quarterly sales for the Molecular Tools business were 9.2 MNOK.
Sales in the Biomanufacturing business were unaffected and continued to grow in accordance with expectations. Quarterly sales for the Biomanufacturing business were 19.1 MNOK.
ArcticZymes Technologies ASA, CEO, Jethro Holter said:
"After a few years of continued growth, profitable performance and milestone achievements, 2022 fell short of its guidance to the market. Entering 2023, the macro-economic effect will continue to impact the Molecular Tools business but less likely the Biomanufacturing business. Despite the current headwinds, the Company remains optimistic towards the future and expects continued growth in the coming years."
